Picture CRISPR-Cas9, a gene editing technology, as a GPS-guided scalpel: gRNA directs the Cas9 enzyme, a protein that cuts ...
Genetic disorders occur due to alterations in the primary genetic material—deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)—of an organism.
Despite emerging clinical successes, current genome editors suffer from off-target effects and can trigger unwanted responses from the immune system, limiting their broader therapeutic applications.
